Hello.
Maybe buying a Head Cleaning Floppy disk kit might help.

If not.... .

This is going to cost you dearly. Far as I know this is the type of drive you need.

At $160...lol... Ouch...!!!

I have an I40M in perfect and beautiful condition, (without scratches) fully working as when shipped from the factory. Do You know what is the worth of it?

Sorry I haven't any idea. I want to sell an i4s and can't think of a price for that.

Does anybody knows if after the HD kit will format the hard disk internal, will the hdd be read by the PC thru a ide-usb adapter ?
